Internal Concrete Moisture Causes & Effects
AIA Chicago, 35 East Wacker Drive, Suite 250, Chicago IL
Excessive moisture emissions related failures are a major problem and continue to rise with the abundance of new, fast track construction processes. LEED requirements, VOC compliance, health & safety concerns, and the general acceptance in the construction industry to incorporate “Green” technology, has exacerbated the problems associated with free water within concrete structures.
The industry, as a whole, is continually searching for viable, long term solutions. The goal of this presentation is to assist you in understanding the reasons for such failures and provide a comprehensive guide to prevention & solution based options.
